Episode 2764:
Understanding supplement certifications can protect you from health risks associated with unregulated products. While GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) certification ensures safe production methods, additional seals like USP or NSF offer stronger guarantees of ingredient purity. As for omega-3 supplements, high doses may increase the risk of heart issues, but nutrition research remains complex and often contradictory. Meta-analyses provide a clearer picture when deciding on supplements.
Quotes to ponder:
"GMP certification ensures that supplements are made with reliable procedures, but it doesn’t always guarantee ingredient purity."
"Omega-3s are praised for reducing inflammation, yet excessive doses can paradoxically raise the risk of heart rhythm issues."
"Nutrition research can be confusing, but meta-analyses help distill conflicting findings into clearer guidelines."
